>> This is one of may things we lost in the war on skeumorphism. The skeumorphic interfaces could mix both more clearly, using shading and texture and "lights" to indicate that a play button was pressed down and active. I suspect a lot of the choices also have to do with saving screen space, but in the end a checkbox is one of the best ways to indicate "enabled" on a settings screen.
